Examples to evaluate xWRL6432
The Radar toolbox on TI Resource Explorer has many examples to help users get started evaluating the xWRL6432 mmWave Sensor. It is recommended to familiarize yourself with the Out Of Box Demo example before evaluating our application specific examples.
| Example | |
|---|---|
| Out Of Box Demo This example project gives the user a basic out of box experience with presence and motion detection |  |
| Incabin Life Presence Detection Demo This example project demonstrates the use of TI AWRL6432 mmWave sensors for Vehicle 2-row Child/Life Prescence Detection (CPD) |  |
| Incabin Intruder Detection Demo This example project demonstrates the use of TI AWRL6432 mmWave sensors for an intruder detection system for a 2-row vehicle that is capable of continuosly monitoring the interior and immediate exterior proximity of a vehicle |  |
| Radar Doorbell This example project uses the presence and motion detection chain to enable outdoor surveillance systems to detect and identify people in different enviroments |  |
| Indoor Occupancy Monitoring This example project demonstrates the use of TI mmWave radar sensors in indoor settings and the ability to locate and track humans in confined spaces, including large rooms. |  |
| Onlooker Detection This example project demonstrates the use of TI mmWave sensors for onlooker detection applications |  |
